Warning: Do not leave stationary PIP/POP, or letterbox images on the screen Chapter . . . for extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown. Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.

The normal use of a TV should include a mixture of TV picture types. The most frequently used picture types should fill the screen with constantly moving images rather than stationary images or patterns. Displaying the same stationary patterns over extended periods of time or displaying the same stationary pattern frequently can leave subtle but permanent ghost images. To avoid this, mix your viewing patterns. Reducing the initial contrast level can help slow the aging process. Do not show the same stationary image for more than 15% of your total TV viewing in any given week. Display constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen whenever possible.

This projection TV uses picture tubes to project the image to the screen. All picture tubes age with use. As they age, their light output is gradually reduced. Normal TV pictures fill the screen with constantly changing images. Under these conditions, picture tubes age at an even rate across the entire screen. This maintains a TV picture that is evenly bright over the whole screen. Stationary images or images that only partially fill the screen (leaving black or colored bars to fill the screen), when used over extended periods of time or when viewed repeatedly, can cause uneven aging of the phosphors and leave subtle ghosts from the stationary images in the picture.

Still or stationary images may be received from broadcasters, cable channels, satellite channels, DVD discs, video tapes, laser discs, on-line services, web/Internet searching devices, video games, and digital TV tuner/converter boxes.

Examples of these types of images can be, but are not limited to the following: Letterbox top/bottom black bars: shown at the top and bottom of the TV screen when you watch a widescreen (16:9) movie on a standard (4:3) TV.

Side bar images: solid bars shown on each side of an image when watching a standard (4:3) program on a widescreen (16:9) TV.

News and stock-market report bars: ticker running at the bottom of the TV screen.

Shopping channel logos & pricing displays: bright graphics that are shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location.

Video game patterns and scoreboards

Bright station logos: moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tubes.

Online (Internet) websites: or any other stationary or repetitive computer style images, including digital photos or computer applications/ programs.

Closed Captioning Mitsubishi recommends using a gray background rather than black or a bright color if you frequently use closed captioning.

12 Connecting External Devices & NetCommand® Setup

NetCommand is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals from the TV to each device through IR emitters. Additionally, it is able to learn the remote control signals used by most audio video devices not already in the TV’s memory. NetCommand can automatically switch the TV along with compatible or learned Audio/Video (A/V) Receivers to the correct input for use with each device. It is important that the inputs on the TV and A/V Receiver back panel match the NetCommand setup that is displayed on-screen.

To simplify the installation of NetCommand, there is a step-by-step on-screen NetCommand setup procedure in this chapter, which details the type and brand of devices you are connecting to the TV. The NetCommand Setup also assigns preset TV and A/V Receiver inputs for each device. You should connect each device to the TV input (both audio and video) and to the A/V Receiver (audio) as shown in the figure below.

A 6-pin connector cannot be connected directly to a 4-pin jack, and vice versa. Instead, you will need to obtain a 6-pin to 4-pin adaptor or adaptor cable. These cables are available from 6 pin to 4 pin adaptor electronic and computer stores.

If you connect a 6-pin device to the TV (such as a camcorder) that is designed to receive electrical power from another 6-pin device, you will need to connect the camcorder directly to the household AC, or use the camcorder’s battery for power. If this is not possible, then the camcorder will need to be connected directly to another 6-pin device in the network that can provide the electrical power.

22 23 IEEE 1394 Device Connection Styles

Connection Styles There are two different connection styles that can be used when connecting IEEE 1394 devices. Use the style that fits your network of audio/video products.

Direct Device-To-Device Style

The IEEE 1394 offers you the capability to chain devices, unlike previous audio and video connections where you had to individually connect each device directly to the TV. For example, you can connect your DVCR to your 1394 DVD Player and then connect the 1394 DVD Player to the TV. The resulting IEEE 1394 chain will allow you to add more devices to the chain. You will be able to see each video device on the TV’s Device Selection Menu and send information from any IEEE 1394 device to other compatible devices.

��

�� Hub Connection Style

The IEEE 1394 also offers you the capability to connect your devices using the TV as a hub within the audio/video network. Each device can send information, which may include audio and video, to any other device in the network.

24 25 Connecting: Helpful Hints Q My VCR (or other device) does not have two sets of stereo audio outputs. How can I connect this device’s audio to both the TV and the A/V Receiver? A. There are two solutions: Chapter . . .

1. Connect the single set of stereo audio outputs to the TV only. Use Edit NetCommand® to change the setup of this device. In the Connection screen of “Change” make sure both audio and video for the TV input are checkmarked and neither the audio or the video for the AVR input are check marked. This will allow the NetCommand system to use the TV outputs to transfer the device’s audio to the A/V Receiver. See Edit NetCommand in the next chapter for details.

2. Use RCA type “Y” splitter cables to split the device’s audio output to be connected to both the TV and the A/V Receiver.

Q. I have both the TV monitor stereo audio output and TV digital audio output connected to the same input designation on my A/V Receiver. How do I switch between analog audio and digital audio? A. This depends on the individual A/V Receiver. Some A/V Receivers will switch automatically to digital when a digital audio signal is supplied. Other A/V Receivers can be manually switched by remote control. For these types of A/V Receivers, see Edit NetCommand in the next chapter for NetCommand control of these features. Some A/V Receivers will require that you make this change on the front panel of the A/V Receiver.

Q. The front panel of my A/V Receiver is too tall or too convex for the IR emitter signal to reach the remote control sensor of the A/V Receiver. What can I do? A. There are several possible solutions.

1. Mount the IR Emitter on the top, front edge of the A/V Receiver over the remote control sensor. Use tape to secure it in place.

2. Mount the IR Emitter on the underside of the shelf above the A/V Receiver (if the A/V Receiver is in a cabinet). Use double sided tape to secure it in place.

3. Some small stick-on emitters from other manufacturers may be compatible with this TV’s IR Emitter jacks. These may be used instead of the supplied IR Emitters.

Q. I occasionally need to see the menu from my A/V Receiver. How can I connect it to the TV for this purpose? A. You can connect the video output of the A/V Receiver to an unused input on the TV. Then use Edit NetCommand to “Add” this as an “Other” device, not an A/V Receiver. On the “Connection” screen, indicate which TV input was used and checkmark the video box. Make sure the TV input audio box and both the audio and video boxes for the AVR input are not checkmarked. You should also name this device so you can easily identify it on the Device Selection Menu. You can also use Input 3 (Camcorder) on the front panel.

Q. I have a high definition receiver I would like to connect and it also has an S-video output I would like to be able use as well. Is there any way to connect this receiver both ways? A. Yes, this item will appear twice in the Device Selection Menu. Just add this unit once using the Antenna and once using one of the S-video inputs. Make sure you indicate that this is the same manufacturer for both. We suggest that you connect stereo audio outputs with the S-video to the TV so that you do not need to use two inputs on the A/V Receiver. If this is a NetCommand compatible HDTV receiver and HD or SD outputs can be switched by remote control, see Edit NetCommand in the next chapter for NetCommand control of this feature.

26 NetCommand® Pre-Memorized Devices

Below is a list of several manufacturers devices tested and shown to be compatible with NetCommand. These devices can be controlled without changing the setting of the remote control from TV to another product. NetCommand may be able to operate additional models since many manufacturers use the same control signals to operate some or all of the models they offer. This chart lists only the models that have been tested with NetCommand. The NetCommand Learning feature is able to learn the remote control signals of most Audio Video devices. For devices not listed in the table, or if your device does not operate using the same remote control as the models listed below you can use the learning feature by selecting “Other” at the [Device] screen. See the Edit NetCommand section of this Guide.

NOTE: There are many different types of remotes and not all of them may be compatible with the learning feature. Bright light near the TV screen can also adversely affect the learning feature. If it is not possible to learn a device, you will need to use the original remote control of the device, or program the TV remote to operate these devices in the traditional manner.

All other parts (except any software incorporated into this television) are warranted for a period of one year from the date of the original purchase at retail. We will repair or replace, at our option, any defective part without charge for the part. Parts used for replacement may be replaced with those of like kind and quality and may be new or remanufactured. Parts used for replacement are warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period. b. Embedded Software. MDEA warrants that all software incorporated into this television set (the “Embedded Software”) will perform in accordance with the functional description of Embedded Software in all material respects, but MDEA does not warrant that the Embedded Software is error-free. MDEA also does not warrant that the Embedded Software will be compatible under IEEE 1394 AV/C and HAVi software standards with products produced by any other manufacturer. The warranty contained in this section shall continue for a period of one year. If, after prompt notice within the warranty period, MDEA determines that the Embedded Software has failed to perform in accordance with such functional description in all material respects and if such failure is not due to accident, misuse, modification or misapplication of the Embedded Software, then MDEA shall modify or replace the nonconforming Embedded Software at no charge to you, which at MDEA’s sole discretion may be fulfilled by means of modification or replacement software contained on a replacement memory card for Customer installation. The foregoing shall be MDEA’s sole obligation to you under this limited warranty. All rights under this limited warranty on the Embedded Software also subject to your compliance with the terms of the Software License Agreement applicable to this television, and this limited warranty on the Embedded Software shall be null and void if the Embedded Software is modified or changed in any manner except as specifically authorized by MDEA. c. Labor. For 30 days after the original purchase at retail, we will repair or replace, at our option, the lenticular screen if it proves defective. For certain items that are designed to be replaced by the consumer, including (but not limited to) the Diamond Shield™ and/or some Embedded Software, the consumer is solely responsible for any replacement labor. For all other parts, we will provide the labor for a warranty repair by an authorized MITSUBISHI service center without charge for one year from the original date of purchase at retail. d. Notice.
